Finally
On a side note, Am I the only one who didn't know that Brand (Brandon Walsh) from "The Goonies" was Josh Brolin?

No you weren't

LOL, I had no idea, thanks Blu! Slightly OT, but this reminds me of one of our threads (Actors who resemble each other)...have fun!

Nice to see the improved artwork. Still not a film I want to double dip on but it looks fantastic!

Zavvi if you're listening (fingers crossed) could you make the title on the spine yellow so it fits in with the rest of the film and art

I love the white text spine! It reminds of the bold white intro title when the movie starts!

Yes yes yes

Ordered this one without a second thought - first flick I ever watched in a cinema.

Sloth loves Chunk!

Awesome change! Definate buy, it's good enough

I'm so glad see that Zavvi have listened to what we all wanted and fixed the artwork to fit all the characters on the cover.

This should look really good with the embossed border and title.

This is awesome news and now cannot wait for this to be in hand

Well done Zavvi yet again for listening to the customers and making changes based on feedback. Had this pre-ordered already and cant wait to have it in hand.

Think a border would actually suit this now based on the new artwork.

Good job Zavvi. Already preordered and will remain as is.

I don't think this was a case of zavvi "listening" to the people, I think this was always the intended cover and the one they had on their site was only a temporary cover.

Nice work Zavvi- loving that they are listening with the changes here, just like they did with 6th Sense as well. Now if we can get them to just lose the black section at the top of The Prestige Steelbook I think that will cover the major hiccups in my opinion.

I have done a side by side comparison. The left was custom created by RMP777 from post #198 and the right is Zavvis current art. Lets see who prefers which. If I could choose I would go for left

I would go the one on the left but am more than happy with the one on the right!

That's cool and all but I think the new image is close enough and a big improvement.

The left ain't gonna happen so I am just excited about the change.

I think this will look super cool in hand. Inside art looks killer too!

This steel will look amazing with gloss/emboss treatment! Better order if you havent ordered alrdy, be sold out real soon

I'm going with the left one But obviously I'm very biased

As much as I like embossing on some Steelbooks, I don't think its always needed and by choosing to add it to this artwork they have created a lot of negative space which could have been avoided... but thats just me being very picky.

I'm still very pleased that Zavvi have listened to the community and adjusted the artwork to give us a far better product.
